Parking would be located in an existing parking lot on the south side of the building. The building and parking lot take up five lots on the block. This site where the building and parking lot are located contains five city blocks, or approximately 28,400 square feet or .065 of an acre. The property is located at the southwest corner of Third Avenue East and First Street East in Kalispell This property is currently developed with an existing building that contains approximately 7,200 square feet.

The building is a large brick building that has a paved parking lot on the south side of the building with approximately 22 parking spaces, a loading area and main entrance off of First Avenue West. The zoning for the property is B-4, Central Business District (CBD).

HUTTON & BRECHEL A conditional use permit request by Mickey Hutton and Mark CONDITIONAL USE Brechel to allow an indoor auto mall in a B-4 at 300 First Ave. PERMIT West. STAFF REPORT Narda Wilson, representing the Flathead Regional Planning Department, gave a presentation on staff report KCU-00-8, a request for a conditional use permit to allow the use of an existing building for an indoor auto mall for the sale of specialty autos including vintage vehicles, street rods, classic cars, corvettes, etc., in the B-4, Central Business District. Automobile sales are listed as a conditionally permitted use in the B-4 zoning district. Montana Motor Sports would move into the existing building initially with the classic auto sales and then at a later date would move the remaining part of the business, retail auto specialty items to the site. The vehicles that would be displayed in the building would be on a consignment basis and test drives would not be routinely conducted from the premises. Test drives would be arranged through the owner at a predetermined time. No significant modifications would be made to the exterior of the building. Parking would be located in an existing parking lot on the south side of the building. The building and parking lot take up five lots on the block. Wilson stated the parking need could go up later, when they bring in the retail, and noted that Skyline Bowl used their parking during off hours, which was an ideal daytime/ nighttime shared parking situation. Mann stated his concern that the sales lot would become unsightly if vehicles were displayed outdoors. Wilson suggested they specify, in condition # 1, that sales be limited to indoor sales. There was a brief discussion about shared parking with the Kalispell City -County Planning Board November 14, 2000 Meeting Minutes Page 2 of 10 bowling alley and the conclusion was that the parking was a convenience, but not a necessity. PUBLIC HEARING The public hearing was opened to those who wished to speak on the proposal. PROPONENTS Mark Brechel, 141 2nd Street West, spoke to Mann's concerns saying there wouldn't be any cars displayed outside and no cars traveling in or out of the building, unless the owner took the car out on a test drive. He said the parking was not public it was private and belonging to the building. Brechel said he had an agreement with the bowling alley to use his parking because it was more parking than he needed. He said they would have an inventory, just like any other business, and they wouldn't be painting, or fixing them up, it would be a consignment auto sales, there for the public to view or potential sales. OPPONENTS No one else wished to speak and the public hearing was closed. MOTION Stevens moved and Rice seconded to adopt staff report KCU- 00-8 as findings of fact and recommended to the Kalispell City Council that the conditional use permit be approved subject to three conditions. AMENDED MOTION Mann moved and Sipe seconded to amend the motion to add the following to condition # 1: The proposal will be developed in substantial conformance with the approved site plan and other application materials limiting the use to indoor sales. BOARD DISCUSSION There was no discussion. ROLL CALL On a roll call vote the motion was unanimously approved as amended. NORTHWEST An amendment to the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance proposed by HEALTHCARE ZONING Northwest Healthcare that would change the maximum TEXT AMENDMENT building height limits in the H-1, Health Care 1 Zone, from 35 feet to 60 feet. STAFF REPORT Na-rda Wilson, representing the Flathead Regional Planning Department, gave a presentation on staff report KZTA-00-2, stating that the application states the current 35 foot height limits do not accommodate contemporary construction methods for hospitals. She said the change was intended to allow the construction of a four-story patient tower for the hospital. Wilson stated the Site Development Review Committee recommended limiting the 60 foot building height to hospitals only. The proposal was evaluated in accordance with the criteria required under the statutes.

Petitioner: Micky Hutton 365 Echo Chalet Dr. Bigfork, MT 59911 (406) 837-4314 Mark Brechel 141 Second St. West Kalispell, MT 59901 (406) 752-1344 B. Summary of Request: This is a request is for a conditional use permit to allow the use of an existing building for an indoor auto mall for the sale of specialty autos including vintage vehicles, street rods, classic cars, corvettes, etc., in the B- 4, Central Business District. Automobile sales are listed as a conditionally permitted use in the B-4 zoning district. Montana Motor Sports would move into the existing building initially with the classic auto sales and then at a later date would move the remaining part of the business, retail auto specialty items to the site. The vehicles that would be displayed in the building would be on a consignment basis and test drives would not be routinely conducted from the premises. Test drives would be arranged through the owner at a predetermined time. No significant modifications would be made to the exterior of the building. Parking would be located in an existing parking lot on the south side of the building. The building and parking lot take up five lots on the block. C. Size and Location: This site where the building and parking lot are located contains five city blocks, or approximately 28,400 square feet or .065 of an acre. The property is located at the southwest comer of Third Avenue East and First Street East in Kalispell. The property can be described as Lots 1 through 5, Block 67, Kalispell Original located in Section 18, Township 28 North, Range 21 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana. D. Existing Land Use and Zoning: This property is currently developed with an existing building that contains approximately 7,200 square feet. Previously the building was used for carpet sales and then other specialty retail uses. Currently the property is unoccupied except perhaps for storage. The building is a large brick building that has a paved parking lot on the south side of the building with approximately 22 parking spaces, a loading area and main entrance off of First Avenue West. The zoning for the property is B-4, Central Business District (CBD). The central business district basically makes up the core area of Kalispell although it has been expanded beyond that within the last decade. The intent of the CBD is stated as follows: "A business district to set apart that portion of the city which forms the center for financial, commercial, governmental, professional and cultural activities. This district is not intended for general application through the planning area." E. Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses Zoning: The immediate area surrounding this property could be described as a primarily commercial in nature, and is part of the core business area on the west side of Kalispell. North: US Post Office, B-4 zoning South: Skyline Bowling alley, B-4 zoning East: Valley Bank and City parking lots, B-4 zoning West: Dry cleaners, retail shop and parking lot, B-4 zoning P. Master Plan Designation: The Kalispell City County Master Plan Map designates this area as commercial and it makes up part of Kalispell's central business district. It is anticipated to have a variety of uses. This proposal is in compliance with the land use designation of the master plan map. G. Utilities/Se ices: Sewer service: City of Kalispell Water service: City of Kalispell Solid Waste: City of Kalispell Gas: Montana Power Company Electric: Flathead Electric Cooperative Phone: CenturyTel Police: City of Kalispell Fire: Kalispell Fire Department Schools: School District #5, Kalispell The application is reviewed in accordance with the conditional use review criteria in the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. 1. Site Suitability: a. Adequate Useable ace: The total area of the five -combined city lots is approximately 28,400 square feet. The existing building is approximately 7,200 square feet and covers approximately 25 percent of the property. It is fairly obvious that when the space was originally developed, it was for a use more retail or office in nature. The existing building would be used to display the classic, vintage and specialty consignment vehicles. There is more than adequate usable space to accommodate the proposed use. b. Adequate Access: Access to the site is by way of a City street, First Avenue West, a paved street which has a curb, gutter and a sidewalk. Primary access will be taken from an existing driveway onto First Avenue West and no improvements would need to be made. There is a paved alley on the west side of the property, which would be used as a secondary access and 2 would be generally limited to garbage pick-up and secondary access to the site. Access to the site is very good. C. Environmental Constraints: The site is level, and no floodplain, surface water, wetland, or hydric soils are mapped on the site. The site has been fully developed and there would be no additional stormwater discharge or other impacts related to the site, which might need to be addressed. a. Parking Scheme: The site plan shows approximately 22 existing parking spaces in the lot located on the south side of the building. There is also a loading area on the south side of the building to the west. The. Kalispell Zoning Regulations requires one parking space per 1,500 square feet plus one per employee for vehicle sales and service. Since the vehicles will only be displayed inside the building, the parking would be based on the square footage of the building and number of employees. The 7,200 square foot building would generate a need for five parking spaces and then another one or two for employee parking for a total of six or seven parking spaces. This would leave an excess of approximately 15 parking spaces. The applicant has indicated that at some point in the future he would be moving his vehicle accessory business to the site as well, probably in the spring. At that time additional parking would be required to accommodate the retail portion of the business. In any event, there is more than adequate parking to accommodate the proposed and anticipated future use on the site with some excess parking anticipated. It may be noteworthy that the Skyline Bowling alley to the south of this property utilizes the parking lot for this building during non -business hours, when the bowling alley is the busiest. This is an excellent example of joint use parking and how "day time / night time" uses can utilize the same parking area. b. Traffic Circulation: Traffic would generally enter the site from a single, well -established driveway off of First Avenue West into the parking lot on the south side of the building. There is more than adequate back-up space between the parking stalls for two way traffic which provides for good circulation and good ingress and egress to the site. The alley between First and Second Avenues west is paved and also provides an option for access to the parking lot and building. Circulation within and around the site is very good. C. Open Space: No specific open space requirements exist in the zoning regulations for a development of this type. The building is constructed up to the property boundaries on the east and north. There are no building setbacks for the B-4 district; therefore it can be found that the existing building complies with the building setbacks for the district. d. FencingJScreening/dLandscaping: Section 27.26.030(4) requires that a minimum of five percent landscaping be installed for new developments. However, because this is an existing developed site, the landscaping should not be required. .Additionally, the building has been built to the property boundaries on the north and west and the paving on the parking lot has 3 also generally been taken to the property boundaries. There is virtually not place that landscaping could be placed unless part of the parking lot pavement was removed and replaced with landscaping, which would not be a very practical option considering the site, its location and the proposed uses. There is no fencing on the property. There is an approximately three foot high block wall in front of the parking lot that provides some visual relief between the parking lot and the street. No additional screening or landscaping is proposed nor does it appear warranted. e. Sigma: No specific sign proposal has been submitted, but there is a sign on the building that appears to comply with City standards. A sign permit would be required. a. 9choQ]s: This site is within School District #5. No impact is anticipated from the proposed project. b. Parks and Recreation: There are no City parks within walking distance of the site. Impacts to the City are anticipated to be minimal. C. Ponce: Police protection will be provided by the Kalispell Police Department. No unusual impacts or needs are anticipated from the proposed use of this site. d. Fire Protection: Fire protection will be provided by the Kalispell Fire Department. No unusual impacts or needs are anticipated from the proposed residential facility. Building access as well as the building construction for the remodel proposed will need to meet the applicable building and fire code requirements. e. Water and sewer: Water and sewer is currently provided by the City and there are existing connections. f. Solid Waste: Solid waste pick-up will be provided by the City. Trash enclosures are placed in the alley and will be used by the occupants. g. Streets.: First Avenue West and Third Street West would be primarily used for access to the site either from the existing driveway to the east or the alley to the west. Both are paved. Traffic anticipated to be generated from this use would be limited. 4. Neighborhood Impacts: Impacts associated with this proposal are anticipated to be limited to occasional traffic. It might be assumed that the zoning regulations have not anticipated the proposal for indoor automobile sales and the provision for requiring a conditional use permit for automobile sales likely anticipated that it would be outdoor sales, in which event the impacts related to storage, lighting and signage would be of greater concern. As previously mentioned, test drives would not be conducted from the site on a routine basis, but would be arranged through the owners who owns the vehicle. No impact from smoke, fumes, gas, odors, or inappropriate hours of operation are anticipated beyond the norm are anticipated in this area. A notice of public hearing was mailed to property owners within 150 feet of the site approximately 15 days prior to the hearing. As of this 0 writing, staff has received no comments from neighbors on the proposal. S. Consideration of historical use patterns and recut changes: Indoor auto sales would be a novelty type of business that could be compatible with the other businesses in the immediate area. Currently there is the post office, bank, bowling alley and some limited retail in the immediate area. The proposed use is consistent with other uses in the area and the character of the area. 6. Effects on property values: No significant negative impacts on property values are anticipated. If needed improvements are made to the building and site, property values may be improved. Staff recommends that the Kalispell City County Planning Board adopt the staff report #KCU-00-8 as findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the conditional use permit be approved subject to the following conditions: The proposal will be developed in substantial conformance with the approved site plan and other application materials. 2. That the applicant comply with any other local, state or federal regulations, which might apply to the proposed use. 3. That the conditional use permit shall terminate 18 months from the date of authorization of commencement if the authorized activity has not begun. REPORTS \KA\00 \KCU00-8.DOC NW Zoning Classification: I plan to sell specialty autos, that being vintage vehicles, street rods, classic cars, corvettes, etc. in an indoor Auto Mall.

The signing of this application signifies approval for the F.R.D.O. staff to be present on the property for routine monitoring and inspection during the approval and development process. Gr LD pplicant Signature Date 2 4VE D I RELATIVE TOPICS FOR PROPOSED USE a. TRAFFIC FLOW AND CONTROL: Traffic control and the need for control will be very minimal as this business appeals to special interest minded individuals. Although we hope to attract a greater amount of people we can realistically project about 15 to 20 visits per day and those will generally occur in the later afternoon and evening when traffic is at it's lowest point. b. ACCESS AND CIRCULATION WITHIN THE PROPERTY: Access to our large 135' x 80' paved parking lot is ideally suited for this area. There are two entrances off 1s` Ave West and a large exit to the alley in the rear where vehicles can exit both north to 3`d Street West or south to 4`h Street West, both of which are low density routs. Our parking lot provides more then the required amount of parking for our business and it provides more then twice the amount of required clear space between cars enabling vehicles to back out of their spaces very safely. c. OFF STREET PARKING AND LOADING As stated above, we have more then ample parking so the use of city parking including street parking is not necessary for our customers. In fact, we supply off street parking for our neighbor, the Skyline Bowl that allows even more street parking for other business to utilize. Our loading area is in our own parking lot and is partitioned off to vehicle parking leaving the alley free for others to use at all times. d. REFUSE AND SERVICE AREAS Refuse will be handled like all other downtown business, a round trash container will be located in the alley for easy puck -up. e. UTILITIES All our utilities are in and up to code. The building is not only equipped with a massive fire control sprinkler system but it also provides the city with a fire hydrant on the north side of the building. SCREENING AND BUFFERING Our parking lot has a very tasteful decorative block wall along the front of the parking lot that is 4' high and buffers the parking lot from the street. Nc vehicles that are for sale, merchandise, or inventory of any kinds will be stored outside our building except for a special occasion. The Classic Auto Mall sells only high -end vehicles and our appeal is that we are an INDOOR auto mall. The protection of our customer's valuable merchandise is very important. We would like the opportunity to, on special occasion, utilize our parking lot for special events much like other downtown merchants have sidewalk sales. g. SIGNS, YARDS AND OTHER OPEN SPACES Our signs comply with city specifications and our parking lot is kept clean. We have ample room to store our own plowed snow during the winter. h. HEIGHT OF BUILDING We have a single story block building. i. LOCATION OF OPEN SPACES Our parking lot is located just to the south of our building. j. HOURS OF OPERATION We will be open during regular business hours, that being 8am to 7pm. k. NOISE, LIGHT, DUST.ODORS, FUMES AND VIBRATIONS Our building is a very attractive and sound cinder block building. It has a beautiful rock front. Our business is such that there will be no noise generated from our activities. The building is very tastefully lighted to show our sign in the front and our parking lot is equipped with Mercury Vapor lighting that is triggered by light sensors to provide our customers with protection in the early darkness of winter.

During the regularly scheduled meeting of the planning board, the board will hold public hearings and take public comments on the following agenda items. The board will make a recommendation to the Kalispell City Council who will take final action. 1. An amendment to the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance proposed by the City of Kalispell that would amend Section 27.26.040(11), Off Street Parking Within Special Parking Maintenance District No. 2. This section currently requires parking at a ratio of one space per 400 square feet of gross floor area for expansion or new construction. As proposed this would be changed to require a ratio of one space per 400 square feet of gross floor area for all uses but would not require more parking than would otherwise be required under the zoning. This would apply to all of the properties within the Special Parking Maintenance District No. 2 and is intended to encourage infill and redevelopment in the core area of Kalispell. 2. An amendment to the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance proposed by Northwest Healthcare that would amend Section 27.12.040, Health Care District Property Development Standards. The amendment would change the maximum building height limits in the H-1, Health Care, zoning district from 35 feet to 60 feet. This amendment is intended to recognize contemporary building standards for hospital construction which includes the need for 15 foot floor sections. This would allow the construction of four story building in this zoning district. As proposed, this amendment would apply to all of the properties within the H-1, Health Care District. 3. A conditional use permit request by Mickey Hutton and Mark Brechel to allow an indoor auto mall for the sale of specialty autos including vintage vehicles, street rods, classic cars, corvettes, etc. in a B-4, Central Business zoning district. Automobile sales are listed as a conditionally permitted use in the B-4 district. Vehicles would be on display inside a building and would not be stored or displayed outside nor would any restoration work take place on the property. Vehicles are not taken out of the building for test drives which would be arranged through the vehicle owners. The property where the auto mall would be located is at 300 First Ave. West which can be described as Lots 1 through 5, Block 67 Kalispell Original, located in Section 18, Township 28 North, Range 21 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana. 4. A conditional use permit request by Northwest Healthcare to allow the placement of a temporary building in an H- 1, Health Care zoning district. Temporary buildings are listed as a conditionally permitted use in this district. The proposed building is a temporary modular medical building to house a new Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) facility. High patient demands for this diagnostic tool exceed what is currently available at the hospital and the facility will have a full patient schedule upon start up, up to eight per day. The temporary building is necessary until an outpatient structure is built within the campus of the Kalispell Regional Medical Center in 2002. The building is proposed to be located near the northeast corner of the Medical Arts parking lot. The property address is 210 Sunnyview Lane and can be described as Lot 2 of the Resubdivision of Kalispell Medical Arts Addn. No. 35 located in Section 6, Township 28 North, Range 21 West, P.M.M, Flathead County, Montana. S. A zone change request by Robert and Patricia Myers from I-IH, Light Industrial Highway, zoning district to an 1-2, Heavy Industrial, zoning district on property located on the east side of Highway 93 South and north of Rocky Cliff Drive. The property address is 3595 Highway 93 South and 93 Wood Products occupies the site. The 1-2, Heavy Industrial zoning would allow 93 Wood Products to expand their operation by installing a drying kiln, which is not allowed under the current 1- 1 H, Light Industrial Highway zoning. Documents pertaining to these agenda items are on file for public inspection in the Flathead Regional Development Office, 723 Fifth Avenue East, Room 414, Kalispell, MT 59901, and are available for public review during regular office hours. Interested persons are encouraged to attend the hearings and make their views and concerns known to the Board.
